Another step? Gurley practices without knee brace

Posted by Zac Jackson on October 6, 2015, 8:11 PM EDT

Todd Gurley had his breakout game. Now, the Rams rookie back is looking to take the next step towards a full comeback from ACL surgery last November that ended his college career and delayed his NFL debut.

Two days after Gurley rushed for 146 yards in his second NFL game, Gurley practiced without the brace he’s been wearing on his left knee.

He told reporters he wants to test it this week in practice. The Rams held Gurley out of the preseason and the season’s first two games to bring the No. 10 pick in last year’s draft along cautiously; Gurley had surgery on his left knee last Nov. 25.

Last Sunday, he not only “exploded” but played the part of closer, running for more than 100 yards in the fourth quarter as the Rams finished an upset of the Cardinals. That there are still steps he needs to take is a scary thought for the rest of the NFC West.

Gurley said the brace is holding him back speed-wise and that he thinks he would've scored on the run i was talking about. Makes sense, i hadn't even thought about the brace...
